The Pins below the Pelvis, are important too! Failure of same is supposed to be a reason for hang glider pilots transitioning to “real gliders”. Although I know, and know of, hang glider pilots who have made the change, this has never been their reason. Does anybody know what happens to old/aging hang glider pilots (besides dying)? Do many/any of them in fact join the GFA?

Yes the services are avaliable in the 'real world' and unsurprisingly they have filled the gap for the most part. In doing so they have killed the campus life. You do _not_ go to Uni for just a degree! You go for the friends, the atmosphere and the environment. I wouldn't normally make a point of this, but I do get very sick of people making these judgements when they simply havent experienced the results. Any other students on the list care to comment?
